He received one probation term for stealing his mother’s jewelry. A second came for possessing heroin and doing so again, this time with intent to sell it. Ordered to stay home and sober, he kept skipping out and getting high, a judge heard Monday.

Belsly, 19, of Washington appeared unfazed when his five-year prison term began with the judge’s order revoking his probations.

Prison was inevitable. He will serve only a year more than the shortest sentence available, however, under the agreement that Tazewell County Circuit Judge Michael Brandt accepted.

According to his case files, Belsly showed little effort to comply with the rules set out for him in probation sentences over the past 18 months. In one instance, the files indicate, he virtually flaunted his refusal.

That came last April, when Belsly visited his probation agent as required by his conviction for the misdemeanor jewelry theft the previous September. When the agent told him to raise his arms for a cursory search, the edge of a plastic bag tucked in his underwear revealed itself. The bag contained small packets of heroin.

Charged with possessing the drug, he was released on bond to return to his parents’ home. Several days later police and the probation agent visited him and found 23 small packages of heroin weighing nearly 3 grams in the house. Small marijuana plants also were found growing outside the house, the records stated.

Guilty pleas to the two heroin charges produced a second two-year probation term last July. Belsly was required under its terms to obey a strict home curfew for the first year, stay clean of drugs and undergo drug treatment if his probation agent ordered it.

Within a month he tested positive for marijuana and had violated the curfew, Brandt heard. Belsly also refused his agent’s order to submit to drug therapy. He was jailed on a petition to revoke probation filed in September but went free when $3,500 in cash bond was posted.

In January, Brandt told him to appear in several weeks for his probation revocation hearing. The next day Washington police arrested him for underage drinking. He tested positive for marijuana again as well, Brandt heard.

Belsly will serve one year in prison for violating his probation in the first heroin possession conviction and four more in the second case. Credits for good behavior and time already spent in jail on the cases could cut his incarceration to about two years.
